IDEALINE
a project by Martin Wattenberg
for the Whitney's artport site

Martin Wattenberg is currently working on an "Idealine" for the artport
website. The "Idealine" is meant to be a map of net artworks created
over the past six years--visualizing a "history" of net art in terms of
the ideas and concepts the works are based upon. A crucial aspect of the
project is the idea of context and visualization of relations/thematic
connections between net artworks. The map is a visualization of a
database that has been created for this project.

We're appealing to the net art community to help us create our database.
We've set up an open page on Quickbase, an online data center, which you
can use to add information about yourself, your art, and its relation to
other works of net art. The context information is very important: your
artwork's visualization in the final map will be influenced by the
number and type of works you've cited as contexts (artworks that
influenced you or have similar goals or your own previous works).

We're hoping that you can add your data. We really appreciate your
effort and advice!
